Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

That sounds like something a fascist would do. Which is likely one of the many reasons it won’t be done.
You are correct
But also there was that recent supreme Court ruling that basically makes the US president a king
So anything Biden ( or any elected president ) does as president is completely and totally sanctioned by the US supreme Court
The Overton window in the US has shifted so far to the right we literally had the supreme Court say the president cannot commit a crime...
It won't be done not because it's fascist. But because the Democratic party doesn't want to play with the modern political ruleset
Trump should have been arrested on January 7th, and Elon is a naturalized citizen who has both received billions in government aid and is working with America's enemies.
Fascism is not when the powerful are obligated to follow the law or face legal consequences.
So you're saying it takes a fascist to arrest one? Lol, ok.
Instead of doing things in his power to stop the rise of fascism, Biden is happy to sit back and allow the fraudsters to do their work. At least he was civil about everything though
If you use the fascist playbook to combat fascism, you are a fascist.
Guess we've already lost then, because nothing substantial is being done to combat the rise of fascism. Hope my friends don't go to camps
Fascist is when there is no merit to the claim. Point out which part is meritless.
